2. Media owner, publisher and editorial direction

Media owner and publisher: OM Group Limited, at the address above, represented by its sole Director, Toni Walter Kienberger. The company's sole direct shareholder is Toni Walter Kienberger (100%). There are no trustees, silent participations or special third-party rights of influence in relation to Moana Earth.

The company's activities in connection with this publication are the operation and publication of Moana Earth and its editorial content about oceans, materials, infrastructure, supply chains and environmental systems.

Editorial direction (Blattlinie): Moana Earth publishes explanations, reporting and analysis about the systems, materials and decisions shaping a changing planet. It aims to distinguish documented facts, interpretation and uncertainty, use traceable sources, and explain material limits and conflicts of interest.

Moana Earth and Ocean Material share the operator OM Group Limited. Moana Earth is therefore not organisationally independent of Ocean Material. Editorial independence describes the approach to content; it does not mean separate ownership. Relevant connections to Ocean Material are disclosed in the affected articles.

Editorial enquiries, corrections and rights-related notices: [email protected]. Please identify the article or passage and provide supporting information.

Public advertising funding disclosure

For the period from the publication's inception through 28 September 2026, the publisher confirms that Moana Earth has received no revenue, grants or other financial contributions. Public funds allocated to Moana Earth for state advertising: EUR 0. Advertising revenues received from third-country public authorities or entities: EUR 0. These figures concern Moana Earth, not the unrelated business activities of OM Group Limited. They will be updated for the relevant annual reporting period.
